Dustin Rippetoe joins Pete Jansons on the SAASholes Revenue Operations Podcast to talk Revenue and Sales Operations Show

Dustin has no easy handles, but trusted peers have described him interchangeably as a GTM philosopher or GTM special operator. He has extensive coaching, small business, and startup experience that he loves to leverage to move individuals and teams closer to flourishing. In 2018, Dustin went into kidney failure twice, had a stroke, sold a business after 20 years, got his MBA, moved across the state with a four-year-old "and” started in Tech sales. Dustin is a strategic advisor and fractional sales leader and has recently moved into an E-Commerce Strategist role at OrderProtection.com. He is always open to passionately discussing human flourishing, tribe building, and "alchemizing high-pressure into high-performance."

You catch him easiest on LinkedIn or Medium (nowgrow).
